Yeah, I've been hearing the "it's all just the usual hyperbole and exaggeration" from a lot of places on this particular speech. I imagine a lot of people said the same things about Hitler's early speeches, too.

I say when someone is hell-bent on acquiring nuclear weapons and talks like this, even if you don't take them seriously, you have to wonder how many bricks shy of a load they have to be to talk like this when they know the object of their hatred already has nuclear weapons.

Evil, or crazy, it really doesn't matter when they have their finger on a missile launch button.

BTW, odd how American politicians don't get this kind of slack when their rhetoric gets out of hand.
